1The rail lines are located within a terminal area

and do not have designated mileposts. SAPT

certifies that its projected revenues will not exceed

those that would qualify it as a Class III railroad.

1The Board will grant a stay if an informed

decision on environmental issues (whether raised

by a party or by the Board’s Section of

exemption’s effective date. See Exemption of Outof-Service Rail Lines, 5 I.C.C.2d 377 (1989). Any

request for a stay should be filed as soon as possible

so that the Board may take appropriate action before

the exemption’s effective date.

2Each offer of financial assistance must be

accompanied by the filing fee, which currently is

set at $1000. See 49 CFR 1002.2(f)(25).

Savannah Port Terminal Railroad, Inc.

(SAPT), a noncarrier, has filed a verified

notice of exemption under 49 CFR

1150.31 to acquire the exclusive

easement over and operate

approximately 23 miles of rail line

(consisting of approximately 1 mile of

common use tracks, and 22 miles of

yard tracks, industrial leads, and other

related trackage over which the Board

might not have jurisdiction) owned by

the Georgia Ports Authority (GPA).1 The

rail line involved in this acquisition

transaction is located within the Garden

City Terminal, Garden City, GA. The

line is currently operated by Savannah

State Docks Railroad (SSDRR).

Following the acquisition transaction,

SSDRR will permanently relinquish its

right to operate as a common carrier

railroad over the line.

The transaction was expected to be

consummated on or shortly after June 8,

1998.

This transaction is related to STB

SAPT upon its becoming a Class III rail

carrier.

If the notice contains false or

misleading information, the exemption

is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the

exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)

may be filed at any time. The filing of

a petition to revoke will not

automatically stay the transaction.

formal complaint filed by a user of rail

As a condition to this exemption, any

employee adversely affected by the

(1979). To address whether this

report which addresses the effects of the

abandonment and discontinuance, if

any, on the environment and historic

resources. The Section of Environmental

6, 1998. Interested persons may obtain

a copy of the EA by writing to SEA

that it has exercised the authority

granted and fully abandoned the line. If
